TradeChain for Waste Management is based on the weight of waste, users have to pay for the use of services according to the amount of waste they produce

Payments are made using a customized cryptocurrency regulated by Smart Contracts and all TradeChain can be financed by a DAO through a fully automated and highly secure process.

A DAO, like any other organization in the real world, has members with the capacity to raise funds and propose different types of proposals. Only proposals can be executed if they are approved by a majority. The proposals can be oriented to anything from the transfer of funds to the execution of other Smart Contracts.

In short, a DAO is a collection of Smart Contracts capable of representing an organization in BlockChain, automating the decision making process and the governance of the organization.

TradeChain considers DAOs as a "waste management organization". A proposal for the transfer of funds to a SGB factory account for the purchase of SGB is passed using the consensus of the members

TradeChain is also based on IoT. BlockChain and Internet of Things (IoT), are two of the most popular and powerful emerging technologies currently and the most suitable to solve the problem arising from Waste Management.

Industry Situation

The processes of collection of solid waste, from the point of production to the point of treatment or disposal are known under the name of Waste Management.

The global waste management market was valued at $285.0 billion in 2016, and is expected to reach $435.0 billion by 2023, registering a CAGR of 6.2% from 2017 to 2023 Global Solid Waste Management market will increase to $1296.04 billion .

Increased globalization and a surge in population and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), among others have led to an increase in the overall waste volume globally. According to World Bank in 2012, urban population produced about 1.3 billion tonnes of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) which is expected to grow to 2.2 billion tonnes in 2025. The costs for managing solid waste is expected to increase drastically in lower middle (four times) income countries such as India and Brazil among others and even higher in low income countries (five times) such as Kenya and Ghana among others.

In developing countries, most of the budget goes to waste collection and only a small amount goes to disposal. On the contrary, the highest cost in the waste management system in developed countries is destined to waste disposal. The most used waste management systems in developed countries process different types of waste from different collectors. These wastes are transported through containers to recycling plants (also called landfills).

A European Union report indicates that during 2014, 2,503 million tons of waste produced in households and other economic activities were produced:

47% of these wastes were incinerated,

36% of these wastes were recycled (without recovering energy from them)

7% of these wastes were incinerated (recovering energy from them)

10% of these wastes were landfilled
